block: fix that util can be greater than 100%

Browse Source 
util means the percentage that disk has IO, and theoretically it should
not be greater than 100%. However, there is a gap for rq-based disk:

io_ticks will be updated when rq is allocated, however, before such rq
dispatch to driver, it will not be account as inflight from
blk_mq_start_request() hence diskstats_show()/part_stat_show() will not
update io_ticks. For example:

1) at t0, issue a new IO, rq is allocated, and blk_account_io_start()
update io_ticks;

2) something is wrong with drivers, and the rq can't be dispatched;

3) at t0 + 10s, drivers recovers and rq is dispatched and done, io_ticks
is updated;

Then if user is using "iostat 1" to monitor "util", between t0 - t0+9s,
util will be zero, and between t0+9s - t0+10s, util will be 1000%.

Fix this problem by updating io_ticks from diskstats_show() and
part_stat_show() if there are rq allocated.
